DOMESTIC DIFFICULTIES.
Another Version of the Trouble Abost
Maud GOrham.

In the NATIONAL REPUBLICAN of Wednesday
last there appeared all account Of family
difficulty which had happened in Fairfax
county. near Baileys Cross Roads. In Justice
to other parties the following account Is given
Of the troubles, which differ materially from
the first statement published:
In October last widow by the name OF Mrs.
$. A. Heath. residing at Bailey IS Cross Roads.
Fairfax county Va, hired q girl by the name
Gorham, required more wages. Mrs Heath
declining to give more, he told his daughter
she must leave; saying he could get sl5 month
for her in Washington, and that she must be
learning something" for him. She refused TO
follow him, and told him that he had idone
nothing for her for the past six years, or since
work for her own living; tbs. that she had a
good home with Mrs. Heath, and did
not care. TO go away. He then threatened
her sad he would take her BY
legal course for him to pursue; that he must
not lay his hands on her; that she should pro-
tect her the same as her own child while she
was in her house or on her premises. A few
days later he procured a writ of habeas corpus
against Mrs. Heath, claiming that she was
keeping his daughter against her will. The
Fairfax Court House before Judge Chichester
and dismissed, the girl being allowed TO go
where she pleased. She returned to Mrs.
senee Of MsSnMey sse Meyssrs Ia as
house Of iES' Milton Payne. @ Ills H'U daughter, @ ter.
Mary, went to Mrs. Heath and found Maud
In the kitchen. She asked her to 60 70 Mr.
Payne's with her, and find pair of gloves that
she had left there the day before. Maud went
through Mrs. Heath's back yard with her sister
TO Mrs. Payne's house. and while there she
was forcibly taken by her father and sister,
and thrown into their wagon. She screamed
most pieously for help, and called on the old
gentleman, VIM, Payne, TO take her. He was
at Mrs. Heath's at this time, but heard her
cries. He being lame and in the Slst year OF
his age, did not succeed in getting near her till
after they started away. Her piteous cries,
and their whipping the horse, caused the ami
NAL TO runaway, but II did not run far before
y became unmanageable and broke en-
tirely loose from their wagon. Just then
the Rev. Mr.. Wickline, of Sc. Paul's Church,
came along. She was still screaming for help.
He assisted her In getting from the wagon,
and she ran toward Mrs Heath's, but befnre
she had gone very far she was caught again by
her father and sister. She still lied for help,
but no one responded until the old gentleman,
Mr.. william Payne, arrived on the scene aud
ordered her father to let her go He not
releasing her, Mr.. Payne dealt him a blow
with his cane across his heal. he released
his hold, and the p)or girl returned TO Mrs
Heath's, almost frightened 10 death, with her
dress almost torn off from her. She was
bruised badly, as she had been thrown across
the seat. and her limbs hung partly out of the
wagon, but fortunately no bones were broken

tween Boston and Washington was heavy
batting contest, the home players making
nineteen and the visitors sixteen actual
base hits. With two exceptions, however,
all OF the visitors hits were singles, while
doubles and triples by the home players
were quite numerous. The Bostons' only
errors were two wild throws and muffed
foul fly by Daily. The Washingtons flelded
well on the whole, but their errors were
made at critical points, and were productive
of runs for their opponents.
The hits on both sides were well punched,
but those by the home nine were heavier
and longer. The Bostons earned one OF
their two runs In the second inning on two
singles and double, and four Of their five
in the fifth on two singles and two three.
